Where does Mike & Niki's honey come from?

Every jar comes from our own apiaries across Silicon Valley – Campbell, San Jose, Santa Clara, Los Gatos, Sunnyvale, Half Moon Bay, Carneros, and more. Mike is our head beekeeper. We harvest, bottle, and label everything ourselves at our Campbell facility – the last farm in Campbell.

Does local honey actually help with allergies?

Raw local honey contains trace amounts of the same pollen your immune system reacts to. Many of our customers use a daily spoonful from their own zip code starting weeks before allergy season as part of their routine. We don't make medical claims, but 13 years of repeat customers tells us something.

What's the difference between varietal and wildflower honey?

Wildflower honey reflects whatever the bees foraged in a given season – a snapshot of that place and time. Varietal honey comes from apiaries placed near a dominant bloom: orange blossom, eucalyptus, sage. Different flavors, different bodies, different colors – same real honey.

Is your honey raw and unfiltered?

Yes. We don't pasteurize, we don't ultra-filter, and we don't blend with anything we didn't harvest. Just strained to remove wax and bee parts. That's why it crystallizes – real honey does.

Yes. Free shipping on orders over $50, $5.99 under. We ship across the US from Campbell, California.

California Honey – Raw Honey from Across the Golden State | Mike & Niki's

Texas honey – big-country honey from the wildflower and mesquite ranges of the Lone Star State. Texas bluebonnets get the postcards, but it's the mesquite, horsemint, and open-range wildflowers that fill the honey supers. The result is honey with warmth and grit – darker and earthier than our coastal California jars.

What Makes Texas Honey Special

Texas is one of the biggest honey-producing states in the country, and the flavor shows you why. Long bloom seasons, hot summers, and millions of acres of rangeland wildflowers produce honey with real body. Mesquite gives it a warm, almost smoky caramel note you won't find in valley or coastal honey.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does Mike & Niki's carry Texas honey?

Same reason we carry Montana – terroir. We keep a small selection of out-of-state honeys so our customers can taste how much the land changes the jar. Put a Texas mesquite next to a Half Moon Bay coastal and the difference needs no explanation.

What does Texas honey taste like?

Warm, full-bodied, with mesquite and rangeland wildflower notes. It stands up to BBQ glazes, cornbread, biscuits, and strong cheese – honey that works as hard as the state it came from.

As Local as It Gets!

Amazing local honey! It’s clear how much love and expertise goes into their product. Make sure to chat with Mike or Niki if you get the chance; their passion is contagious, and you’ll walk away knowing exactly how your honey was sourced. Support local and go see them!

Great honey!

This is the best local honey our whole family enjoys having everyday!!

fragrance too strong

It's pretty easy to apply to the skin (doens't take too much effort to rub it on), but I don't like the smell of the product at all. I would tolerate it if it were a natural smell of the beewax, but no, this is a perfumy kind of odor. And it's strong and lingering. I don't recommend it.

Anne, we get that this did not work for you. and we will take that on the chin. with our next batch we will weigh your opinion in our process
I privately sent you a solution
We hope you will try other things and still be a fan. NIKI
